Soon Vs Now

All of us have something that we always wanted to do i.e. preparing for a new job or start going to gym and we have always come up with the word soon for it, almost all the time. We know it is very important and we ultimately have to do it someday but, almost all the time we take it for granted.

Why do we do that?

We always think that we can do the things in future and take many things for granted. We have also come up with New Year Resolution for doing the things we always wanted to do.

How many of you remember the last year’s resolution, and if you are fortunate enough to remember it, I bet you could not stick to it till the end of this year.

New year is just a date on a calendar and nothing more. The most important day is now.. right now in this moment. We have all the things we need to be whatever we want to become, and it’s a trick that our mind plays to make things complicated(more on this later). We should focus on doing things from today only and the day we start doing things we always wanted to do becomes the first day.

Of course it’s awesome to celebrate the new year, but how does it make you feel on the second day of the next year, doing the same things that you were doing last year.

It sucks right. It doesn’t have to be that way though, all we have to do is decide that now is the time for doing the things we always wanted to do and Just Do it.
